Receptor Backcountry MIPS has an aramid penetration barrier and is especially developed for North Shore, Slick Rocks or any freeride occasion where there's a risk of crashing into high friction objects. The helmet is equipped with the patented MIPS system to reduce the rotational forces to the brain in the case of an oblique impact. Receptor Backcountry comes with detachable ear pads and is also certified for snow sports use.
